The Comeback of the Cannon-Fodder Supporting Actress

Chapter 1125 - 1099: After the Body Snatching 9

Anning and Xiao Yuan didn’t go far; they bought some clothes nearby.

Both Anning and Xiao Yuan valued quality of life when conditions permitted, so naturally, they chose clothes with good fabric and decent style and cut.

Such clothes look beautiful when worn, and their prices are also beautiful.

However, Anning had some money Lina transferred to her, and she had recently made some quick gains in the stock market, so she was not short of money and was willing to spend on clothes.

Anning bought herself a few outfits and two sets of pajamas; she also bought a few outfits for Xiao Yuan, and the two of them carried large bags home.

Once they got home, Xiao Yuan checked the time and quickly changed clothes to go back to school.

"Tonight, Lao Si is treating us. The time is almost up, so I must hurry," he said, kissing Anning and leaving with a backpack.

Anning saw Xiao Yuan to the door: "Are you coming back tonight?"

Xiao Yuan waved his hand: "I’ll stay in the dorm tonight and move back tomorrow."

"Text me tonight."

Anning smiled and waved at Xiao Yuan.

As soon as Xiao Yuan left Taoyuan New City, his phone rang.

Xiao Yuan quickly answered; it was Xu Anshan from the dorm, calling.

"Second brother, where are you? We’re all waiting for you."

Xiao Yuan laughed: "I’ll be right there, you guys order first."

"We’ll wait a bit for you."

Xu Anshan said and hung up.

Xiao Yuan didn’t go back to the dorm; he went directly to the restaurant Xu Anshan had reserved.

The restaurant was near the school, a place often chosen by Hai University students to treat guests. The restaurant was quite large, the food was good, the prices were moderate, and it served the purpose well without causing financial strain.

Xiao Yuan arrived at the restaurant quickly; after asking for the room number, he went straight in.

When he arrived, Xu Anshan was talking with Eldest, Fang Mingyu. Seeing Xiao Yuan, he called out, "Second brother is here, have a seat."

Xiao Yuan found a seat somewhat away from the others.

Mainly because both Xu Anshan and Fang Mingyu had girlfriends, and Third, He Hao, also brought his girlfriend. Being single, Xiao Yuan didn’t want to sit too close to the couples.

Xu Anshan called the waiter to bring the menu, and each of the seven people ordered a dish, and finally, Xu Anshan added a hearty dish to make eight.

While waiting for the food, Xu Anshan said to Xiao Yuan: "Three of us in the dorm have girlfriends now but not you, Second brother. Just tell us what kind you’re looking for, and we’ll help you find one."

Fang Mingyu also said, "Second brother, there are plenty of girls in Hai University. Why hang on to Miss Yan?"

He Hao nodded: "Second brother, since you already broke up, just move on. Don’t dwell on it."

Xiao Yuan poured himself a glass of water: "We didn’t break up."

"What?"

Fang Mingyu was surprised.

Xu Anshan studied Xiao Yuan, and beside him was his new girlfriend, Cao Fang.

Cao Fang also looked at Xiao Yuan, and after a careful look, she was surprised: "Second brother, when did you get these clothes? This is A’s latest collection; it must have cost a lot."

Xiao Yuan smiled: "I didn’t buy them; Ningning bought them."

The guys in Xiao Yuan’s dorm all knew Anning’s name, so when he said Ningning, they knew it was Yan Anning.

"Are you two really back together?"

Xu Anshan was still a bit skeptical.

He Hao was also surprised: "I heard people say Miss Yan dated the richest family’s young master and was quite passionate about it some time ago. Did she get dumped and come back to you?"

It’s not surprising He Hao said that.

The alien soul had ended things very bitterly before, hurling insults at Xiao Yuan. Later, she publicly pursued Li Hai, even had him pick her up from school several times, so most Hai University students knew about it, and He Hao didn’t think highly of her behavior.

Xiao Yuan was helpless; he had to explain carefully: "Ningning has always liked me. Her parents forced her to break up with me to arrange a marriage with the Li family, which she didn’t want. Her parents threatened her, saying if she didn’t break up, they’d make sure I couldn’t remain in Hai City and would harm my family, so she had no choice but to agree to date Li Hai."

"And now?"

Xu Anshan and the others didn’t expect such a twist; it sounded just like a novel, making them quite curious.

Xiao Yuan shrugged: "On the surface, Ningning seemed close to Li Hai, but she didn’t treat him well privately. She even hit him recently, ruining the plans between their families. She severed ties with her family to escape their control and now lives by herself."

"She has some backbone."

He Hao’s dislike for Anning eased a bit after hearing from Xiao Yuan.

Xu Anshan walked over and patted Xiao Yuan’s shoulder: "You’ve finally reached clear skies after the clouds. Second brother, you’re pretty lucky."

Fang Mingyu also laughed: "Since you’re back together, you should bring your girl over."

Xu Anshan added: "Second brother, call the sister-in-law over to join us, we’ve all brought someone along, and you’re the only one who didn’t, it doesn’t seem right."

Xiao Yuan agreed and was about to call Anning when she messaged him first.

After seeing the message, Xiao Yuan texted Anning, asking her to come over for dinner.

Meanwhile, with Lina.

She had had a meal with Anning when a friend called to say she had brought back the books Lina had been looking for and also got her many seeds.

Lina agreed to meet the friend.

She hadn’t seen this friend in a long time, and if she went, they might end up having dinner together, which could keep her out late.

Lina messaged Yan Anhua, telling him she’d be late and not to wait for her for dinner.

However, while driving to meet the friend, the friend messaged saying there was a personal issue, so Lina shouldn’t come over, and the friend would mail the books and seeds to her instead.

Lina replied and drove back home.

By the time she returned home, it was almost evening. Yan Zhengnan hadn’t finished school, and the housekeeper and driver weren’t home either. Lina entered the living room, heard no noise, and assumed no one was there.

She headed upstairs without delay.

Lina planned to rest for a bit, then go cook some meals.

But as she passed Shi Ye’s room, she heard some sounds.

"Don’t, be gentle."

"What are you afraid of? She’s not here; she texted she’ll be back late tonight. I told the housekeeper and driver to take Xiao Nan out to play for a while, have dinner outside before coming back; we have plenty of time now."

The voices belonged to Shi Ye and Yan Anhua.

Lina stopped abruptly, an ominous feeling creeping into her heart.

Driven by instinct, Lina pulled out her phone and started recording.

"I still feel awkward doing it here."

That was Shi Ye’s voice, sounding delicately soft.

Then there was Yan Anhua’s laughter: "Alright, I’ll be gentle, and next time we go out; you must make it up to me."

Lina heard the two of them kissing.

She pushed the door ajar and saw the two of them lying stark naked on the bed.
